151 for larger buffers it just a waste of address space. Drivers which has

153 virtual space with just a few allocations.
155 With this parameter you can specify the maximum PAGE_SIZE order for
156 DMA IOMMU buffers. Larger buffers will be aligned only to this
157 specified order. The order is expressed as a power of two multiplied

864 to physical address re-mapping, Cortex-A8 does not recover from the
865 stale interworking branch prediction. This results in Cortex-A8
866 executing the new code sequence in the incorrect ARM or Thumb state.
867 The workaround enables the BTB/BTAC operations by setting ACTLR.IBE
868 and also flushes the branch target cache at every context switch.
869 Note that setting specific bits in the ACTLR register may not be
870 available in non-secure mode.

873 bool "ARM errata: Processor deadlock when a false hazard is created"
875 depends on !ARCH_MULTIPLATFORM
877 This option enables the workaround for the 458693 Cortex-A8 (r2p0)
878 erratum. For very specific sequences of memory operations, it is
879 possible for a hazard condition intended for a cache line to instead
880 be incorrectly associated with a different cache line. This false
881 hazard might then cause a processor deadlock. The workaround enables
882 the L1 caching of the NEON accesses and disables the PLD instruction
883 in the ACTLR register. Note that setting specific bits in the ACTLR
884 register may not be available in non-secure mode.
886 config ARM_ERRATA_460075
887 bool "ARM errata: Data written to the L2 cache can be overwritten with stale data"
889 depends on !ARCH_MULTIPLATFORM
891 This option enables the workaround for the 460075 Cortex-A8 (r2p0)
892 erratum. Any asynchronous access to the L2 cache may encounter a
893 situation in which recent store transactions to the L2 cache are lost
894 and overwritten with stale memory contents from external memory. The
895 workaround disables the write-allocate mode for the L2 cache via the
896 ACTLR register. Note that setting specific bits in the ACTLR register
897 may not be available in non-secure mode.

902 depends on !ARCH_MULTIPLATFORM
904 This option enables the workaround for the 742230 Cortex-A9
905 (r1p0..r2p2) erratum. Under rare circumstances, a DMB instruction
906 between two write operations may not ensure the correct visibility
907 ordering of the two writes. This workaround sets a specific bit in
908 the diagnostic register of the Cortex-A9 which causes the DMB
909 instruction to behave as a DSB, ensuring the correct behaviour of

913 bool "ARM errata: Incorrect hazard handling in the SCU may lead to data corruption"
914 depends on CPU_V7 && SMP
915 depends on !ARCH_MULTIPLATFORM
917 This option enables the workaround for the 742231 Cortex-A9
918 (r2p0..r2p2) erratum. Under certain conditions, specific to the
919 Cortex-A9 MPCore micro-architecture, two CPUs working in SMP mode,
920 accessing some data located in the same cache line, may get corrupted
921 data due to bad handling of the address hazard when the line gets
922 replaced from one of the CPUs at the same time as another CPU is
923 accessing it. This workaround sets specific bits in the diagnostic
924 register of the Cortex-A9 which reduces the linefill issuing
925 capabilities of the processor.
927 config ARM_ERRATA_643719
928 bool "ARM errata: LoUIS bit field in CLIDR register is incorrect"
929 depends on CPU_V7 && SMP
932 This option enables the workaround for the 643719 Cortex-A9 (prior to
933 r1p0) erratum. On affected cores the LoUIS bit field of the CLIDR
934 register returns zero when it should return one. The workaround
935 corrects this value, ensuring cache maintenance operations which use
936 it behave as intended and avoiding data corruption.
938 config ARM_ERRATA_720789
939 bool "ARM errata: TLBIASIDIS and TLBIMVAIS operations can broadcast a faulty ASID"
942 This option enables the workaround for the 720789 Cortex-A9 (prior to
943 r2p0) erratum. A faulty ASID can be sent to the other CPUs for the
944 broadcasted CP15 TLB maintenance operations TLBIASIDIS and TLBIMVAIS.
945 As a consequence of this erratum, some TLB entries which should be
946 invalidated are not, resulting in an incoherency in the system page
947 tables. The workaround changes the TLB flushing routines to invalidate
948 entries regardless of the ASID.

951 bool "ARM errata: Faulty hazard checking in the Store Buffer may lead to data corruption"
953 depends on !ARCH_MULTIPLATFORM
955 This option enables the workaround for the 743622 Cortex-A9
956 (r2p*) erratum. Under very rare conditions, a faulty
957 optimisation in the Cortex-A9 Store Buffer may lead to data
958 corruption. This workaround sets a specific bit in the diagnostic
959 register of the Cortex-A9 which disables the Store Buffer
960 optimisation, preventing the defect from occurring. This has no
961 visible impact on the overall performance or power consumption of the

965 bool "ARM errata: Interrupted ICIALLUIS may prevent completion of broadcasted operation"
967 depends on !ARCH_MULTIPLATFORM
969 This option enables the workaround for the 751472 Cortex-A9 (prior
970 to r3p0) erratum. An interrupted ICIALLUIS operation may prevent the
971 completion of a following broadcasted operation if the second
972 operation is received by a CPU before the ICIALLUIS has completed,
973 potentially leading to corrupted entries in the cache or TLB.
975 config ARM_ERRATA_754322
976 bool "ARM errata: possible faulty MMU translations following an ASID switch"
979 This option enables the workaround for the 754322 Cortex-A9 (r2p*,
980 r3p*) erratum. A speculative memory access may cause a page table walk
981 which starts prior to an ASID switch but completes afterwards. This
982 can populate the micro-TLB with a stale entry which may be hit with
983 the new ASID. This workaround places two dsb instructions in the mm
984 switching code so that no page table walks can cross the ASID switch.
986 config ARM_ERRATA_754327
987 bool "ARM errata: no automatic Store Buffer drain"
988 depends on CPU_V7 && SMP
990 This option enables the workaround for the 754327 Cortex-A9 (prior to
991 r2p0) erratum. The Store Buffer does not have any automatic draining
992 mechanism and therefore a livelock may occur if an external agent
993 continuously polls a memory location waiting to observe an update.
994 This workaround defines cpu_relax() as smp_mb(), preventing correctly
995 written polling loops from denying visibility of updates to memory.

1001 This options enables the workaround for the 364296 ARM1136
1002 r0p2 erratum (possible cache data corruption with
1003 hit-under-miss enabled). It sets the undocumented bit 31 in
1004 the auxiliary control register and the FI bit in the control
1005 register, thus disabling hit-under-miss without putting the

1013 This option enables the workaround for erratum 764369
1014 affecting Cortex-A9 MPCore with two or more processors (all
1015 current revisions). Under certain timing circumstances, a data
1016 cache line maintenance operation by MVA targeting an Inner
1017 Shareable memory region may fail to proceed up to either the
1018 Point of Coherency or to the Point of Unification of the
1019 system. This workaround adds a DSB instruction before the
1020 relevant cache maintenance functions and sets a specific bit
1021 in the diagnostic control register of the SCU.
1023 config ARM_ERRATA_775420
1024 bool "ARM errata: A data cache maintenance operation which aborts, might lead to deadlock"
1027 This option enables the workaround for the 775420 Cortex-A9 (r2p2,
1028 r2p6,r2p8,r2p10,r3p0) erratum. In case a data cache maintenance
1029 operation aborts with MMU exception, it might cause the processor
1030 to deadlock. This workaround puts DSB before executing ISB if
1031 an abort may occur on cache maintenance.

1037 On Cortex-A15 (r0p0..r3p2) the TLBI*IS/DSB operations are not
1038 adequately shooting down all use of the old entries. This
1039 option enables the Linux kernel workaround for this erratum
1040 which sends an IPI to the CPUs that are running the same ASID
1041 as the one being invalidated.
1043 config ARM_ERRATA_773022
1044 bool "ARM errata: incorrect instructions may be executed from loop buffer"
1047 This option enables the workaround for the 773022 Cortex-A15
1048 (up to r0p4) erratum. In certain rare sequences of code, the
1049 loop buffer may deliver incorrect instructions. This
1050 workaround disables the loop buffer to avoid the erratum.

1058 instruction might deadlock. Fixed in r0p1.
1059 - Cortex-A12 852422: Execution of a sequence of instructions might
1060 lead to either a data corruption or a CPU deadlock. Not fixed in
1061 any Cortex-A12 cores yet.
1062 This workaround for all both errata involves setting bit[12] of the

1070 This option enables the workaround for the 821420 Cortex-A12
1071 (all revs) erratum. In very rare timing conditions, a sequence
1072 of VMOV to Core registers instructions, for which the second
1073 one is in the shadow of a branch or abort, can lead to a

1535 use-after-free bugs becoming an exploitable privilege escalation
1536 by ensuring that magic values (such as LIST_POISON) will always
1537 fault when dereferenced.
1539 CPUs with low-vector mappings use a best-efforts implementation.
1540 Their lower 1MB needs to remain accessible for the vectors, but
1541 the remainder of userspace will become appropriately inaccessible.

1559 bool "Use PLTs to allow module memory to spill over into vmalloc area"
1563 Allocate PLTs when loading modules so that jumps and calls whose
1564 targets are too far away for their relative offsets to be encoded
1565 in the instructions themselves can be bounced via veneers in the
1566 module's PLT. This allows modules to be allocated in the generic
1567 vmalloc area after the dedicated module memory area has been
1568 exhausted. The modules will use slightly more memory, but after
1569 rounding up to page size, the actual memory footprint is usually
1572 Disabling this is usually safe for small single-platform
1573 configurations. If unsure, say y.

1576 int "Maximum zone order"
1577 default "12" if SOC_AM33XX
1578 default "9" if SA1111 || ARCH_EFM32
1581 The kernel memory allocator divides physically contiguous memory
1582 blocks into "zones", where each zone is a power of two number of
1583 pages. This option selects the largest power of two that the kernel
1584 keeps in the memory allocator. If you need to allocate very large
1585 blocks of physically contiguous memory, then you may need to
1586 increase this value.
1588 This config option is actually maximum order plus one. For example,
1589 a value of 11 means that the largest free memory block is 2^10 pages.
1591 config ALIGNMENT_TRAP
1593 depends on CPU_CP15_MMU
1594 default y if !ARCH_EBSA110
1595 select HAVE_PROC_CPU if PROC_FS
1597 ARM processors cannot fetch/store information which is not
1598 naturally aligned on the bus, i.e., a 4 byte fetch must start at an
1599 address divisible by 4. On 32-bit ARM processors, these non-aligned
1600 fetch/store instructions will be emulated in software if you say
1601 here, which has a severe performance impact. This is necessary for
1602 correct operation of some network protocols. With an IP-only
1603 configuration it is safe to say N, otherwise say Y.
1605 config UACCESS_WITH_MEMCPY
1606 bool "Use kernel mem{cpy,set}() for {copy_to,clear}_user()"
1608 default y if CPU_FEROCEON
1610 Implement faster copy_to_user and clear_user methods for CPU
1611 cores where a 8-word STM instruction give significantly higher
1612 memory write throughput than a sequence of individual 32bit stores.
1614 A possible side effect is a slight increase in scheduling latency
1615 between threads sharing the same address space if they invoke
1616 such copy operations with large buffers.
1618 However, if the CPU data cache is using a write-allocate mode,
1619 this option is unlikely to provide any performance gain.
1623 prompt "Enable seccomp to safely compute untrusted bytecode"
1625 This kernel feature is useful for number crunching applications
1626 that may need to compute untrusted bytecode during their
1627 execution. By using pipes or other transports made available to
1628 the process as file descriptors supporting the read/write
1629 syscalls, it's possible to isolate those applications in
1630 their own address space using seccomp. Once seccomp is
1631 enabled via prctl(PR_SET_SECCOMP), it cannot be disabled
1632 and the task is only allowed to execute a few safe syscalls
1633 defined by each seccomp mode.
1636 bool "Enable paravirtualization code"
1638 This changes the kernel so it can modify itself when it is run
1639 under a hypervisor, potentially improving performance significantly
1640 over full virtualization.
1642 config PARAVIRT_TIME_ACCOUNTING
1643 bool "Paravirtual steal time accounting"
1646 Select this option to enable fine granularity task steal time
1647 accounting. Time spent executing other tasks in parallel with
1648 the current vCPU is discounted from the vCPU power. To account for
1649 that, there can be a small performance impact.

1673 depends on GCC_PLUGINS && STACKPROTECTOR && SMP && !XIP_DEFLATED_DATA
1674 select GCC_PLUGIN_ARM_SSP_PER_TASK
1677 Due to the fact that GCC uses an ordinary symbol reference from
1678 which to load the value of the stack canary, this value can only
1679 change at reboot time on SMP systems, and all tasks running in the
1680 kernel's address space are forced to use the same canary value for
1681 the entire duration that the system is up.
1683 Enable this option to switch to a different method that uses a
1684 different canary value for each task.

1698 bool "Support for the traditional ATAGS boot data passing" if USE_OF
1701 This is the traditional way of passing data to the kernel at boot
1702 time. If you are solely relying on the flattened device tree (or
1703 the ARM_ATAG_DTB_COMPAT option) then you may unselect this option
1704 to remove ATAGS support from your kernel binary. If unsure,

1731 The base address of an area of read/write memory in the target
1732 for the ROM-able zImage which must be available while the
1733 decompressor is running. It must be large enough to hold the
1734 entire decompressed kernel plus an additional 128 KiB.
1735 Platforms which normally make use of ROM-able zImage formats
1736 normally set this to a suitable value in their defconfig file.
1738 If ZBOOT_ROM is not enabled, this has no effect.
1741 bool "Compressed boot loader in ROM/flash"
1742 depends on ZBOOT_ROM_TEXT != ZBOOT_ROM_BSS
1743 depends on !ARM_APPENDED_DTB && !XIP_KERNEL && !AUTO_ZRELADDR
1745 Say Y here if you intend to execute your compressed kernel image
1746 (zImage) directly from ROM or flash. If unsure, say N.
1748 config ARM_APPENDED_DTB
1749 bool "Use appended device tree blob to zImage (EXPERIMENTAL)"
1752 With this option, the boot code will look for a device tree binary
1753 (DTB) appended to zImage
1754 (e.g. cat zImage <filename>.dtb > zImage_w_dtb).
1756 This is meant as a backward compatibility convenience for those
1757 systems with a bootloader that can't be upgraded to accommodate
1758 the documented boot protocol using a device tree.
1760 Beware that there is very little in terms of protection against
1761 this option being confused by leftover garbage in memory that might
1762 look like a DTB header after a reboot if no actual DTB is appended
1763 to zImage. Do not leave this option active in a production kernel
1764 if you don't intend to always append a DTB. Proper passing of the
1765 location into r2 of a bootloader provided DTB is always preferable
1768 config ARM_ATAG_DTB_COMPAT
1769 bool "Supplement the appended DTB with traditional ATAG information"
1770 depends on ARM_APPENDED_DTB
1772 Some old bootloaders can't be updated to a DTB capable one, yet
1773 they provide ATAGs with memory configuration, the ramdisk address,
1774 the kernel cmdline string, etc. Such information is dynamically
1775 provided by the bootloader and can't always be stored in a static
1776 DTB. To allow a device tree enabled kernel to be used with such
1777 bootloaders, this option allows zImage to extract the information
1778 from the ATAG list and store it at run time into the appended DTB.

1800 string "Default kernel command string"
1803 On some architectures (EBSA110 and CATS), there is currently no way
1804 for the boot loader to pass arguments to the kernel. For these
1805 architectures, you should supply some command-line options at build
1806 time by entering them here. As a minimum, you should specify the
1807 memory size and the root device (e.g., mem=64M root=/dev/nfs).

1817 Uses the command-line options passed by the boot loader. If
1818 the boot loader doesn't provide any, the default kernel command
1819 string provided in CMDLINE will be used.
1821 config CMDLINE_EXTEND
1822 bool "Extend bootloader kernel arguments"
1824 The command-line arguments provided by the boot loader will be

1827 config CMDLINE_FORCE
1828 bool "Always use the default kernel command string"
1830 Always use the default kernel command string, even if the boot
1831 loader passes other arguments to the kernel.

1833 command-line options your boot loader passes to the kernel.
1837 bool "Kernel Execute-In-Place from ROM"
1838 depends on !ARM_LPAE && !ARCH_MULTIPLATFORM
1840 Execute-In-Place allows the kernel to run from non-volatile storage
1841 directly addressable by the CPU, such as NOR flash. This saves RAM
1842 space since the text section of the kernel is not loaded from flash
1843 to RAM. Read-write sections, such as the data section and stack,
1844 are still copied to RAM. The XIP kernel is not compressed since
1845 it has to run directly from flash, so it will take more space to
1846 store it. The flash address used to link the kernel object files,
1847 and for storing it, is configuration dependent. Therefore, if you
1848 say Y here, you must know the proper physical address where to
1849 store the kernel image depending on your own flash memory usage.
1851 Also note that the make target becomes "make xipImage" rather than
1852 "make zImage" or "make Image". The final kernel binary to put in
1853 ROM memory will be arch/arm/boot/xipImage.
1857 config XIP_PHYS_ADDR
1858 hex "XIP Kernel Physical Location"

1860 default "0x00080000"
1862 This is the physical address in your flash memory the kernel will
1863 be linked for and stored to. This address is dependent on your
1866 config XIP_DEFLATED_DATA
1867 bool "Store kernel .data section compressed in ROM"
1868 depends on XIP_KERNEL
1871 Before the kernel is actually executed, its .data section has to be
1872 copied to RAM from ROM. This option allows for storing that data
1873 in compressed form and decompressed to RAM rather than merely being
1874 copied, saving some precious ROM space. A possible drawback is a
1875 slightly longer boot delay.
1878 bool "Kexec system call (EXPERIMENTAL)"
1879 depends on (!SMP || PM_SLEEP_SMP)
1883 kexec is a system call that implements the ability to shutdown your
1884 current kernel, and to start another kernel. It is like a reboot
1885 but it is independent of the system firmware. And like a reboot
1886 you can start any kernel with it, not just Linux.
1888 It is an ongoing process to be certain the hardware in a machine
1889 is properly shutdown, so do not be surprised if this code does not
1890 initially work for you.
1893 bool "Export atags in procfs"
1894 depends on ATAGS && KEXEC
1897 Should the atags used to boot the kernel be exported in an "atags"
1898 file in procfs. Useful with kexec.
1901 bool "Build kdump crash kernel (EXPERIMENTAL)"
1903 Generate crash dump after being started by kexec. This should
1904 be normally only set in special crash dump kernels which are
1905 loaded in the main kernel with kexec-tools into a specially
1906 reserved region and then later executed after a crash by
1907 kdump/kexec. The crash dump kernel must be compiled to a
1908 memory address not used by the main kernel
1910 For more details see Documentation/admin-guide/kdump/kdump.rst
1912 config AUTO_ZRELADDR
1913 bool "Auto calculation of the decompressed kernel image address"
1915 ZRELADDR is the physical address where the decompressed kernel
1916 image will be placed. If AUTO_ZRELADDR is selected, the address
1917 will be determined at run-time by masking the current IP with
1918 0xf8000000. This assumes the zImage being placed in the first 128MB
1919 from start of memory.

1928 select EFI_PARAMS_FROM_FDT
1930 select EFI_GENERIC_STUB
1931 select EFI_RUNTIME_WRAPPERS
1933 This option provides support for runtime services provided
1934 by UEFI firmware (such as non-volatile variables, realtime
1935 clock, and platform reset). A UEFI stub is also provided to
1936 allow the kernel to be booted as an EFI application. This
1937 is only useful for kernels that may run on systems that have
1941 bool "Enable support for SMBIOS (DMI) tables"
1945 This enables SMBIOS/DMI feature for systems.
1947 This option is only useful on systems that have UEFI firmware.
1948 However, even with this option, the resultant kernel should
1949 continue to boot on existing non-UEFI platforms.
1951 NOTE: This does *NOT* enable or encourage the use of DMI quirks,
1952 i.e., the the practice of identifying the platform via DMI to
1953 decide whether certain workarounds for buggy hardware and/or
1954 firmware need to be enabled. This would require the DMI subsystem
1955 to be enabled much earlier than we do on ARM, which is non-trivial.

1976 This is necessary to run most binaries. Linux does not currently

1987 Say Y to include 80-bit support in the kernel floating-point
1988 emulator. Otherwise, only 32 and 64-bit support is compiled in.
1989 Note that gcc does not generate 80-bit operations by default,
1990 so in most cases this option only enlarges the size of the
1991 floating point emulator without any good reason.
1993 You almost surely want to say N here.

2000 This is an experimental much faster emulator which now also has full
2001 precision for the mantissa. It does not support any exceptions.
2002 It is very simple, and approximately 3-6 times faster than NWFPE.
2004 It should be sufficient for most programs. It may be not suitable
2005 for scientific calculations, but you have to check this for yourself.
